When You Least Expect It (Larry Stylinson)

Chapter 8

TJ rolled over in bed as he felt a gentle hand running up and down his back, and a pair of lips attach to his neck. And as he squinted his eyes open it was impossible to stop the small smile that came to him at seeing his boyfriend grinning down at him, dipping his head and gently connecting their lips.

"Good morning my love," Cody mumbled against him before pecking his lips one more time and sitting up. "You didn't eat much last night so I made you some breakfast."

TJ's eyes went wide as he saw the large breakfast the older lad made for him, not sure if it was all for him or for some small army he didn't know was coming over. "Breakfast in bed, I'm starting to feel spoiled," he said and signed as he laughed to himself.

"Only now you're starting to feel spoiled? Well clearly I'm doing something wrong," Cody said jokingly as he passed a plate to his boyfriend and was more than happy to actually see him eating.

TJ shook his head, trying to hold back his laugh as he chewed his food. "Everyday you spoil me love, just by being my boyfriend I'm spoiled."

Cody placed a hand over his heart like that was sweetest thing he ever heard. "You're turning into a bigger sap than me."

"That's what I get for spending all my time here and not in my own flat," TJ said and signed teasingly before taking another bite of his food.

Cody hummed to himself, the younger lad practically living here and only ever going back to his flat for more clothes. It would probably make it easier if TJ moved in, but he thought it was too soon to ask him that, but then again, he did have to mention a certain thing to his boyfriend that will definitely rock their relationship a little bit, especially because they haven't been dating all that long.

"So I was uhm, I was thinking today we could go to the doctor and try to figure out why you haven't been feeling well," Cody said quietly, seeing his boyfriend nod as he continued eating like it was no big deal. "And I may have talked to my pop about what's going on, like how you've been feeling and all your symptoms and stuff."

Okay... TJ signed confused with furrowed eyebrows, the older lad sounding a bit off.

Cody bit his lip, not wanting to freak his boyfriend out, but he had to tell him, had to put it out there as a possibility. "A-and he uhm, well he asked a few questions and he said a few things that make sense and-"

Love what's going on? Why are you so nervous? TJ asked, almost seeing Cody shaking and refusing to look at him as he talked.

"He said you might be pregnant," Cody rushed out, not even sure if the younger lad understood what he said, but by the way his boyfriend went still he had a feeling he heard every word.

What...? TJ barely managed to sign, his hands almost refusing to move as he looked back at the older lad.

"Well he said that-"

No, no, I understood what you said, but that's not possible... I mean we're not having a... A baby, TJ signed, shaking his head as he pushed himself up from the bed and started pacing the bedroom.

"Love it's a possibility," Cody said softly as he saw the younger lad a second away from freaking out.

"But we can't! We're not ready for that, we-we-" TJ stopped himself, rubbing his hands over his face and trying to ignore his stomach twisting into knots.

"TJ c'mon, come sit for a second and relax."

"Relax?! You're telling me we're gonna be parents and you want me to relax?!" TJ looked at his boyfriend wide eyed.

Cody bit his lip as it was clear he was screaming, but he didn't want to make the younger lad upset, he just wanted him to know it was a possibility. "Babe we don't even know if that's what's going on... But we need to go to the doctor, we have to figure what's happening with you."
